KFUM form and stats

As mentioned below, KFUM are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 3 Obos-Ligaen games.

KFUM's previous game was a Obos-Ligaen match also played at home, ending 4-1 versus Sogndal (placed 10th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Before that, KFUM played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Ullensaker / Kisa.

What a game it was for D. Tavakoli when beating Sogndal, applying the finishing touch to three goals!

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier KFUM matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, zero draws and one defeat (from three games).

KFUM are traveling soon after this match as the Obos-Ligaen match at HamKam awaits in three days.

Goals are plentiful at KFUM Arena in the league this season as KFUM has scored 8 goals here in 3 home games. KFUM's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 3 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Åsane form and stats

Åsane are yet to lose a point on their Obos-Ligaen travels this season with 2 wins from 2 away games. Åsane has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Florø.

Åsane go into this game after a win, the home game against Lillestrøm that ended 3-1. Before that one, a nice away victory 3-0 at Strømmen.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Åsane playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, one draw and zero home wins.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Tromsø in just three days.

It's early days yet, but Åsane has scored 5 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last two meetings): KFUM won zero games, one match ended with a draw and Åsane has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: zero / two
